  1. BrainToMush 1. "They contain genes spliced in from gnats and crickets. " First of all not all of them. And burden of proof demands you to point which ones have it and why is it bad that they are spliced. Gene splicing actually happens naturally too even without human interaction. funny fact. "They contain pesticides and herbicidal resistance. They are clearly not "identical."" Of course not, they are better. However what you idiots don't get the point when people make the statement is that they mean that the crop itself is almost no different. It's mostly still the same crop with slight differences. Just like every human being has a different gene code. 2. "2. "GMO's are 100% safe."" This is a strawman argument. No one says that they are 100% safe. People are simply stating that they are no more dangerous than organic. In fact there are studies which shows that organic ones actually are more hamful. "Just because there are people who are starving in a poverty stricken nation does not mean everyone should be forced to eat a certain kind of food." Another strawman. No GMO supporter says that you should give up organic. In fact unlike you, were all for people making their own choice. Also organic already has a label. Why should we label GMO too? Pretty much pointless, unless you want to do fear mongering. "They should not be forced to eat anything they don't want to. " Expect those poor people don't have a choice. GMO crops are cheaper and far more nutritious and resistant than organic ones. Unless you figure out how to raise organic crops in extreme elements then these people have no other choice. You're literally demanding that they should die because of your belief system.

  2. RobClayJoker I love how an idiot tells people to do more research when his own research is about reading articles from naturalnews xD.... PS: Organic industry is a huge scam and it's full of shills.

  3. J. Leblanc Enjoy your tinfoil hat. You're like climate change denialists. Who believes that there is a big conspiracy in science against your dear hold beliefs.

  4. ***** The irony here is that organic industry actually has shills. While spokespersons for GMO literally get 0 penny.

  5. Patricia Boley "I am a (was) scientist and can tell you that peer-review isn't free of bias and favoritism." That very sentence proves that you're no scientists. It proves that you lack of knowledge what peer-review means.
